Yume Wiki mainly documents features of fangames that are found by playing the game itself. When listing meta-info or trivia, it may be thoughtful to include a citation to a webpage such as a developer's website. This guide shows how to place simple reference lists on pages. Notes that give additional information outside the main page text are also covered on this page as they use the reference system as well.
A good example of a page using references and notes is the Yume Nikki page.
References
To place a reference after text, use <ref>
tags:
Yume Wiki was started by members of YNOproject.<ref>Yume Wiki https://yume.wiki/YumeWiki:About</ref>
There is no official system or style for references. Most pages simply place an external link.
References are automatically listed at the end of a page. You should create a ==References==
header at the end of the page. You can also manually choose a location for the list by placing the tag <references />
anywhere on the page.
Notes
To make notes on a page, use the ref tags with the added attribute group
:
This text has a note at the end.<ref group="note">Note text</ref>
To list the notes on a page, make a header titled "Notes" with a references tag for the note group:
==Notes== <references group="note" />
If you use both notes and references, place the notes header and tag before the references list.
Multiple uses
It's possible to use the same reference or note multiple times by specifying a name
for each tag and only placing the reference/note text within one of the tags. If you do this with notes, make sure to still include group="note"
in each tag.
Example:
This is some text.<ref name="abc">Reference text here</ref> This is more text using the same reference.<ref name="abc" /> <references />
Output:
This is some text.[1]
This is more text using the same reference.[1]
